Matthew 11:9-11

Revised Standard Version

⁹Why then did you go out? To see a prophet?^[a] Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet. ¹⁰This is he of whom it is written,

‘Behold, I send my messenger before thy face,
who shall prepare thy way before thee.’

¹¹Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has risen no one greater than John the Baptist; yet he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
